摘要: Methods and systems for controlling a prosthesis using a brain imager that images a localized portion of the brain are provided according to one embodiment of the invention. For example, the brain imager can provide motor cortex activation data using near infrared imaging techniques and EEG techniques among others. EEG and near infrared signals can be correlated with brain activity related to limbic control and may be provided to a neural network, for example, a fuzzy neural network that maps brain activity data to limbic control data. The limbic control data may then be used to control a prosthetic limb. Other embodiments of the invention include fiber optics that provide light to and receive light from the surface of the scalp through hair.

摘要: This invention is a temperature-based smart insole capable of continuously or intermittently measuring the foot temperature of the patient at one or more locations of the foot while the insole is worn. The device provides feedback to the patient alerting the individual of risk based on his/her plantar temperatures. Benefits of this device include: its ability to free the patient from the clinical setting and increase patient's confidence to be mobile, thus enhancing circulation while at the same time allowing the patient to self-monitor their feet.

摘要: Methods and systems for controlling a prosthesis using a brain imager that images a localized portion of the brain are provided according to one embodiment of the invention. The brain imager provides motor cortex activation data by illuminating the motor cortex with near infrared light (NIR) and detecting the spectral changes of the NIR light as passes through the brain. These spectral changes can be correlated with brain activity related to limbic control and may be provided to a neural network, for example, a fuzzy neural network that maps brain activity data to limbic control data. The limbic control data may then be used to control a prosthetic limb.

摘要: A passive/adaptive vibration control system is provided wherein various elements of the system may be adapted on-line in response to sensed vibrations. A spring/mass vibration absorber is attached to a vibrating body to absorb energy generated by that body, to minimize the transmission of vibrations to a structure in mechanical communication with the vibrating body. In one embodiment of the present invention, the mass of the vibration absorber may be adjusted, on-line, to compensate for sensed vibrations. A vibration sensor is connected to either the vibrating body or the attached structure so as to sense the level of vibration above a desired level and to send a signal representative of that vibration to an electronic controller. The electronic controller is designed to instruct the actuator to adapt the mass to compensate for the sensed vibration. In additional embodiments of the system, the stiffness of the spring, rather than the mass of the weight, may be adjusted on-line to "tune" the vibration absorber. Further, if more than one excitation frequency is present, a plurality of on-line adaptive and/or purely passive vibration absorbers may be cascaded so as to minimize vibrations due to a plurality of excitation frequencies. Depending on the number of vibration axes to be attenuated, one or a plurality of passive/adaptive vibration absorber elements may be used.
